Saxonville Mills are a longtime neighborhood hub
The historic Saxonville Mills no longer produce wool, but they do continue as a community anchor. Today, more than 80 artist studios, galleries and small retailers – and one popular coffee shop – are scattered across the site’s 10 red-brick mills, which overlook the Sudbury River. “Saxonville has a small-village community feel within the larger city of Framingham,” says Brandon Ward, president of the Friends of Saxonville neighborhood group. Locals tend to be active and engaged, Ward says, and feel a strong connection with the historic mill complex, which has community roots stretching back to the 1820s. Scenic trails beside the Sudbury River and Lake Cochituate are another local treasure, often sitting a short walk from the backyards of the unique midcentury ranch-style homes, built almost entirely by one local company. While Saxonville can at times feel like a secluded lakeside retreat, convenience to shopping destinations like Natick Mall and downtown Framingham ensure that residents need not go without modern conveniences. Summertime boating on the lake, winter’s tradition of hockey on the frozen ponds and the red brick mill building all signify home to residents of Saxonville.

It's easy to find a Campanelli ranch-style home
Small starter homes are a hallmark of the neighborhood, Ward says, and many are centered around the mill, not far from Lake Cochituate. One-story “slab” ranch-style homes are predominant. “They are all Campanelli ranchers, post-World War II dwellings,” says Ward. “The Campanelli Brothers built tons of the ranchers, which are mirror images of themselves. It was housing stock for the booming population of returning soldiers.” There are thousands of them – built on concrete slabs and once considered inexpensive – across Saxonville and Framingham.
Additional housing options include everything from colonials to recent constructions that evoke a modern farmhouse. Sidewalks link some homes, typically in areas with lots that are a quarter to half an acre. This intimate layout encourages strong community ties. “I think a lot of neighbors, they get along. They know each other,” says Realtor Nelson Zide of ERA Key Realty Services. Single-family home prices start at $385,000 and can climb to around $900,000, with some options reaching as high as $1.6 million for newer homes in a golf community. Depending on the number of bedrooms, condos can range in price from around $350,000 to over $500,000.
Homes in Saxonville offer private driveways and garages.

Locals commute to Boston or work in the MetroWest
Residents can be on the Massachusetts Turnpike, also known as the Mass Pike, in five minutes. This busy artery takes commuters straight to Boston, about 20 miles away. There’s a good portion of the community that commutes, Ward says, and instead of driving some will ride the MTBA commuter rail into the city, a trip of about 45 minutes to an hour from the Natick Center station. Framingham and the surrounding MetroWest region also have robust office and business offerings.
